Editing your staff profile

Introduction

Staff profile edit tab image
  • View shows the page as it is displayed, Edit allows you to make changes via the Edit form. Any changes must be saved in Edit to appear in View. Changes can be previewed before saving using Preview.

Tips to optimise your profile
  • Use first-person
  • Include a professional, welcoming photo
  • Highlight select achievements rather than exhaustive lists
  • Include structured headings for easy navigation
  • Balance your academic achievements with approachability
  • Mention current/past PhD supervision experience
